Gwen Stefani likes creative kids
Gwen Stefani likes her kids to be “creative” when it comes to fashion. The No Doubt singer raises sons Kingston, 5, and Zuma, 3, with husband Gavin Rossdale.
“I like them to be creative and have fun. I’d love to be part of it — don’t get me wrong,” Stefani, 42, says of dressing her boys in the November issue of InStyle.
“Sometimes they’ll get dressed and it’s horrifying. But they often come out in outfits that are awesome.”
Gwen admits combining her catwalk looks with motherhood has proven to be a challenge.
“When you have two little boys, you have to play outside. There’s no way around it,” she explains. “If we’re at the park, I try not to wear heels. The kids are so gigantic, it would be painful.
“I always bring back-up shoes! At work, I’ve learned how to delegate. It makes you a better wife and mom. You don’t have to be on a ladder in a warehouse, micromanaging. You can be at home.
“I love having a job where I can be in my office and look out the window and see my kids playing. The thing I’d like to do is enjoy these boys while they’re young — so I don’t regret I was working too much when they’re big and don’t want to cuddle with me anymore.”
